LESA AKER IS a self-taught artist hailing from the beautiful rolling hills of southern Kentucky near Somerset. She has lived on a farm from the time she was born and has seen many circles of life which led her to appreciate the short time we have with our animal friends and our human ones as well.
Her medium of choice is pastel, as she find it allows for a vibrant and detailed expression of her love for animals. Her inspiration comes from the natural world and the incredible creatures that inhabit it.
She sees the beauty and magic that surrounds us, from the delicate flutter of a butterfly’s wings to the powerful presence of a majestic horse and the awesome rushing of a waterfall. She strives to capture the spirit and essence of each subject in her artwork, using color and texture to bring life to them on the paper. Each piece is a representation of her deep connection to nature where the beauty of the animal kingdom is celebrated, and the wonders of our surroundings are appreciated.
